Saxon Road

Shaping a plan for Saxon Road

We’ve been speaking with your community about a plan for the garages at Saxon Road since 2020. Most recently, we sent you a short survey for you to let us know what you thought about our latest design. So, we're inviting you to come and have your say on the future of the garages in your neighbourhood at our winter 2023 event.

The future of Saxon Road

Having spoken to the community about a plan for the Saxon Road garages, we sent out a short survey so you could let us know what you thought about our latest design. 

We want to thank you for all your feedback, as it's helped us put together a detailed planning application. Some elements of the design are fixed, like the number of homes, but other parts like landscaping are yet to be finalised.

That’s where you come in!

See it first

You may have already seen our augmented reality app See it first, which helps to bring our plans for Saxon Road to life. We’ve continued to develop it, and you can now use it to see the latest detailed planning application too! 

It allows you to explore the inside and the outside of the new homes proposed for Saxon Road in life-size scale.

The app is free to download from the iOS App Store - search for 'See it first' and look for the logo below. Once you have it, head over to the garages and scan the image on the wall to check out the detailed planning application for yourself.

We'd love to know what you think

So we'd like to extend an invitation to you to join us at our winter 2023 community event! There, we'll be in discussion with you about our plans, taking on your feedback to develop these plans further and shape Saxon Road the way you want it. The upcoming event will take place:

  • Saturday, 11 November

We hope to see you there, but you can still get involved  even if you can’t make it on the day! Simply get in touch with us via email at shapingplaces@flagship-group.co.uk, or call us on 0808 168 4555.
